Dried cowpea stewed with native chicken
Overview
I was worried that there was no food at home, and suddenly I remembered that there were dried cowpeas that my mother brought when I left, and there was also a native chicken that my mother-in-law brought in the refrigerator, so I made a stew of dried cowpeas and native chicken. I felt very happy just thinking about it
